ADD GASOLINE • I& Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck, Do not overfill, Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane, (Use of leaded gasoline will increase carbon and lead oxide deposits and reduce valve life), Do not mix oil with gasoline, Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness, fuel, Do not store, spill or use gasoline CAUTION: Wipe off any spilled oil or near an open flame. WARM WEATHER STARTING (50 ° F and above) • When engine starts, move the throttle control to the fast position, • The attachments and ground drive can now be used, If the engine does not accept the load, restart the engine and allow it to warm up for one minute using the choke as described above, I COLD WEATHER STARTING ( 50 ° F and below) • When engine starts, allow engine to run with the throttle control in the choke (1\1)position until the engine runs roughly, then move throttle control to fast position. This may require an engine warm-up period from several seconds to several minutes, depending on the temperature, • The attachments can also be used during the engine warm-up period. I IMPORTANT: WHEN OPERATING IN TEMPERATURES BELOW32°F(0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN WINTER GRADE GASOLINE TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER STARTING. CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage Instructions for additional information. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold temperatures (below 32 F) the carburetor fuel mixture may need to be adjusted for best engine performance, See "TO ADJUST CARBURETOR" in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual. 13 OPERATION MOWING TIPS • • • • f Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing performance, See "TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING" in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual, The left hand side of mower should be used for trimming. Drive so that clippings are discharged onto the area that has been cut, Have the cut area to the right of the machine, This will result in a more even distribution of clippings and more uniform cutting, When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right so that clippings will discharge away from shrubs, fences, driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow in the opposite direction making left hand turns until finished (See Fig. 8). f ( FIG. 8 • • • • 14 If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried clippings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the desired height. Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will plug mower and leave undesirable clumps, Allow grass to dry before mowing, Always operate engine at full throttle when mowing to assure better mowing performance and proper discharge of material, Regulate ground speed by selecting a low enough gear to give the mower cutting performance as well as the quality of cut desired, When operating attachments, select a ground speed that will suit the terrain and give best performance of the attachment being used, MAINTENANCE m MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE T Check Brake Check Tire A Check C ChecWReplace Mower Lubrication Chart 0 Check Battery Level R Clean Battery and Terminals Check Transaxle Check Mower Check V-Belts Check Engine for Loose Fasteners Oil (without _ Clean Air Filter G Clean Air Screen [ Inspect Muffler/Spark N Replace Oil Filter v' v" i,," V" _11S1,2 oil filter) _lllf oil filter v' 1,2 Arrester (If equipped) Cooling Fins v' Plug Air Filter Paper Cartridge Fuel Filter 1 - Change more often when operating under a heavy load or in high ambient temperatures. 2 - Service more often when operating in dirty or dusty conditions.
